Romine was sacked three times after halftime, and Air Force stalled twice in the final 3 1/2 minutes when a touchdown would have put the Falcons ahead.When you know its going to be a shootout game type like that, youve just got to buckle down and know that weve got to score every drive, said Jacobi Owens, who led Air Force with 106 yards rushing. Sadly at the end, we didnt score every drive.Lamar Jordan had a career-high two touchdown passes for the ground-oriented Lobos. After a 12-yarder to Gipson midway through the second quarter, he floated one to a wide-open Q Drennan for a 45-yard score .

He called my name all the time on the sidelines so after the game I had to go show him some love.THE TAKEAWAYNew Mexico: The Lobos bounced back strong from a blowout loss to No. 15 Boise State and might have taken a big step toward a second straight bowl season under fifth-year coach Bob Davie.Air Force: The Falcons might have been thinking about making a run for the Top 25 after improving to 4-0 with a win over Navy, which handed No. 13 Houston its first loss a week later.
